Journal ArticleDOI

Mersacidin eradicates methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in a mouse rhinitis model

TL;DR: In the mouse rhinitis model, mers acidin was able to eradicate MRSA colonization and the site of action (epithelium versus blood) of mersacidin needs to be further explored.
Journal ArticleDOI

Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticle Targeting of MSCs in Vascular Injury

TL;DR: It is shown that magnetic targeting of mesenchymal stem cells gives rise to a 6-fold increase in cell retention following balloon angioplasty in a rabbit model using a clinically applicable permanent magnet.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lipopolysaccharide structures of Helicobacter pylori genomic strains 26695 and J99, mouse model H. pylori Sydney strain, H. pylori P466 carrying sialyl Lewis X, and H. pylori UA915 expressing Lewis B

TL;DR: The molecular makeup of the cell-wall lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) from five Helicobacter pylori strains should aid investigations that focus on identifying and characterizing genes responsible for LPS biosynthesis in genomic strains 26695 and J99, and in understanding the role of H. pyloro LPS in animal model studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phenotypic Variation in Molecular Mimicry betweenHelicobacter pylori Lipopolysaccharides and Human Gastric Epithelial Cell Surface Glycoforms ACID-INDUCED PHASE VARIATION IN LEWISXAND LEWISY EXPRESSION BY H. PYLORILIPOPOLYSACCHARIDES

TL;DR: This is the first report identifying an environmental trigger inducing phase variation of Le(x) and Le(y) in H. pylori that can aid adaptation of the bacterium to its ecological niche.
